HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

Happy fathers’ day to my dad even though he is not with us anymore.

this time last year I Had lunch at MONA, then took FiL out for dinner in Hobart.

No such celebrations this year, sent a card away to both fathers and treated myself to a heart attack sanga…

What’s the round thing on the plate there?

Happy Father’s day to the forum dads…

I saw a card yesterday that said “Father’s Day – like Mother’s Day but less expensive” :)

retailers and advertisers certainly don’t put as much effort into Father’s day although you can buy some good tools

I’ve always told the kids, “I did nothing special”. One of my friends got a card from his daughter… it read, “I once lived in your balls. Happy fathers day.”

I had a young person say to me yesterday that his dad doesn’t work about him doing a good job as a dad.

I said there are quite a few dads that are at home helping to be a dad in that way. I said that is a big job , being a parent is a big job!

His mum smiled and nodded.

yeah, I got a good deal on a new mower and an impact driver this week

Facebook is wishing me a happy Fathers Day.

Perhaps they know more about my private life than I do.

Why don’t they advertise tools for mums on Mother’s Day? And I don’t mean those candy pink ones.

Some woman is stalking you, she has a kid. She has questions and a paternity test.

Guy at work bought his wife a chainsaw as a present. Apparently she still has never used it.

Did she want and/or need a chainsaw or was he just being a smart arse?

not viable.
for something to be sold at a ‘special’ price, they need volume of turnover to makee it worthwhile

She complained that she didn’t like using the chainsaw they had because it was too heavy.Which I guess is why he had to do all the chainsawing. So he bought a small lightweight one just for her.

It’s kind of an insult to get a new ironingboard or the like..
the exception might be a ultrasonic jewelry cleaner
or an electronic manicure kit w/attachments.

this is probably true, whereas getting a cordless drill or something is awesome.

>Why don’t they advertise tools for mums on Mother’s Day

I think it should be resolved first as to where the inverted comma goes, ought it go after the s’ of before the ‘s

that little possessive apostrophe thingy I mean, where does it go

while an ironing board that actually irons all the clothes (and folds them) would be awesome

transition said:

fathers (plural ) day.

Alex suggests it is also plural for mothers’ day technically

I disagree.. it’s not many fathers’ day it’s each individual father’s day

Does it really need the apostrophe? After all, do fathers really own the day?

the term does sort of indicate a celebration (or commemoration), a dedication to, of the day.

probably completely drop any possessive apostrophe i’d reckon, it’s superfluous

Just telling the truth. Is there a problem?

All this talk about Fathers day, do you know when Mothers day is?

9 months after Fathers day.

I got a box of chocolates from my son, my ten year daughter old made me toast for breakfast and gave me a handmade card, some worlds coolest dad things and ten dollars. We went to the café my daughter works in for lunch and she made me a very nice coffee.
